Reddit: Bad news for third-party apps, their announced pricing is close to Twitter's pricing, and Apollo would have to pay Reddit $20 million per year to keep running as-is.

Got off my call with Reddit just now about the API. Bad news unless I come up with 20 million dollars (not joking). Appreciate boosts. https://www.reddit.com/r/apolloapp/comments/13ws4w3/had_a_call_with_reddit_to_discuss_pricing_bad/

This is legit the reason why I literally just signed up on here.
same - can't tell if it's placebo but ever since i read they were going public, i've noticed it just get shittier and shittier. inexcusably wrong to do
Going public is just business speak for selling out your userbase for shareholder money. It's never a good thing for the users.
I was a transplant from Digg, ages ago. I never liked the cross-sub political undercurrent that always left you getting dogpiled on by idiots for expressing you opinions. I’ve wanted to jump ship for awhile but not a lot of good alternatives existed. Voat essentially became the social media platform for Stormfront. Ruqqus became a low-tier, low-effort meme board with little information discussion. Hopefully this lasts and has some promise to it.
I hope we see a mass migration. Fuck Reddit for doing this. I'm here now as well.
Grab yourself Jebora if you're on Android for a good app: https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.jerboa/
I've also found just the mobile web interface to be highly usable compared to reddit's.
Yeah, reddit on mobile makes me want to gouge out my eyes then roll through shattered glass.
The only issue I've found with lemmy on mobile is remembering collapsed comments, or not jumping back to the same comment when you accidentally click a link that doesn't open in a new tab.
@borari @aspensmonster how do you use Lemmy on mobile, just through the website, or some mobile client app?
There's a list of apps on that page
